I DEFINITELY need help reaching my goal..I was banded in June of 2008 and had to have my port replaced in June of 2009..I was beginning to really loose when my port started leaking. I changed doctors (for another reason) and the new one replaced my port. Since then I have not lost at all what I feel I should have..PLEASE HELP!!!! I AM REALLY GETTING DISCOURAGED and thinking I should have had the gastric by-pass surgery instead!
